The same thing happens to my function setting material ID, which takes the same arguments in. Do you have any idea what's happening or what I can provide to help diagnose the problem?

The data type used for boundary_id and material_id is 'unsigned char', but we treat it as an integer type. So when you set, say, the boundary_id to 13, and then print it on the screen, it is treated as ASCII character 13 -- which is not printable in a form that shows up on the screen.

You'll get to see what you want if you convert things to an integer:
  std::cout << "boundary id "
            << static_cast<int>(cell->face(fn)->boundary_id ()) << std::endl;

Cheers
